In a move to propel the growing global movement for agroecology, Kenya is currently hosting the second Eastern African agroecology conference (EAAC) in Nairobi.
The EAAC conference aims to motivate stakeholders to invest in interventions that transform current unsustainable food systems by transitioning towards agroecology and more environmentally friendly solutions with long-term vision and planning.
It has attracted over 700 participants from across Africa and beyond, drawn from representatives of governments, the private sector, farmers' associations, NGOs, academia, research institutions, investors, and development partners.
Organized by Biovision Africa Trust, the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, and over twenty partners, the conference seeks to harness the potential of agroecology in transforming and sustaining resilient agri-food systems.
